Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
time taken to reach the max height is expressed according to the projectile equation;
tmax = u/g
Given u = 30m/s
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81
t = 30/9.81
t = 3.0secs
hence it will take the flare 3.06secs to reach its maximum height.
Max height = u²/2g
Max height = 30²/2(9.81)
Max height = 900/19.62
Max height = 45.87m
If the people set off an emergency flare from a height of 2 meters above the water, the total height will be 45.87 + 2 = 47.87m
Since we need to find the number of ways they could enter first, second and third place, (I can't demonstrate, but you should get the idea) take 8, 7 and 6 and multiply them, 5-1 we don't need, we just need 8, 7, and 6, multiply those three numbers and you get 336, there you go, 336 ways to organize all 8 girls in first, second and third place, hope this helps
The statement suppose <span>that r varies directly with s and inversely with t is best represented as:
r </span>α s/t
To make it into equality, we insert a proportionality constant, k:
r = ks/t
Using the initial conditions, we solve for k.
r = ks/t
<span>r = 2 when s = 3 and t = 12
2 = k(3)/12
k = 8
Thus, when </span><span>s = 5 and t = 4,
</span>
r = 8(5)/4
r = 10 -----> OPTION C
